Nexus 7 (or 8): Looking Forward To iPad-Like Form Factor

I like the iPad mini's for fractor. It's light, smallish despite having a generous 8" screen, and a smaller than expected form factor largely due to its smaller bezels. Now, it appears the next Nexus tablets should follow suit as well with their own updated form factor.

According to early specs, we could be looking at not only improved screen resolution which would bring us better text for reading. 7" Is fine for many things but reading small text isn't that great. With an improvement from 1280x800 to 1900x1200, we should see greater improvements, bane for optometrists I'm sure.
